Bad idea since they downshift for turns. Meaning they would rev the engine up so loosing DF mid turn. Good idea though!

How in the world would this be packaged? Would a drawing be too much to ask for? Nothing too fancy, just a sketch on paint or whatnot.

I know that this thread has not been added to for a while, but could this have been the inspiration for Renault's funky new exhausts? :D

Not sure. I have had the idea of exhaust blowing into the rear wing by placing the tips in the sharkfin by the 15cm area before but due to the incredible temperatures the density of the air hitting the wing would be so little that it may actually cause a drop in downforce.
